I doubt it was as much as Bush, Cheney and the RNC bagged from the corporations that want our borders left open and the illegal alien advocacy groups.
What's your point?
I'm sure you will recall that during the congressional elections of 2004, Team America PAC contributed heavily to the campaigns of candidates running against imcumbant republicans. Many considered this to be a violation of Reagan's 11th Commandment and Tanc was criticized by many Republicans for this and they accused him of being a back-stabber. Delay and other republican house leaders went so far as to point out that Tanc has had no advancement in the House because he is anti-republican. If you look at his committee assigments you see that, in spite of his tenure, he doesn't hold even a sub-committee chair and he gets only the lowliest of the low committee assignments.
In response to this, Bay pointed out that Tanc doesn't control TA PAC and he wasn't responsible for opposing these republican imcumbants, that she and Pat control it. I always thought that this was odd since Tanc formed TA PAC, his name is used on the literature, and he raises money for it.
When ever I see examples, such as is describe in this article, of Tanc raising money for Pat and Bay I don't undrstand it. Its like he is paying off Pat and Bay for something they have done for him or will do for him.
